Elements of Mastery with Matt Giordano

May 15th-17th 2020

We are delighted to bring Matt to the studio from the U.S to share his knowledge and passion for yoga in this 3-day immersion for yoga students and yoga teachers. Matt is a unique, enthusiastic and wonderful teacher who will uplift you with his knowledge and clear, direct and refreshing approach to yoga practice and anatomy.

The Elements of Mastery (Part 1)

A 3 Day Yoga Immersion

For Yogis and Yoga Teachers looking to truly master body awareness through the practice of Asana.

For those that have been developing a steady yoga practice but are really searching to dive into the next layer and develop a true sense of mastery, this is the training for you. This Immersion uses the Elements (Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Space) as a basis for self-awareness and deeper knowledge of both body and mind. The Elements of Mastery will take you step by step through the body and provide you with the skills to truly understand your own body both the energetically and practically. Trainees will learn to feel their anatomy through “Muscle Actions” and observe what Matt calls “joint relationships” to gain a total understanding from mind to body. In addition to Asana practice there will be postural clinics, body reading, visual demonstration break downs, partner exercises and specific hands on adjustments to develop a stronger kinaesthetic connection to precise muscle actions and structural alignments. If you are wanting to take your Asana practice to a new level of mastery, feel better in your body, and attain the skills to help others feel good in their body than this immersion is perfect for you.
